ANF No Comments

May 27-29, 2019 in Tagaytay-city, the Philippines

Asia Nano Forum(ANF) had ANF SUMMIT on May27 this year, and also 2019 INTERNATIONAL NANOTECHNOLOGY CONFERENCE in the PHILIPPINES(INCP2019)on May 28-29.

INCP 2019 will provide excellent opportunities to the researchers, scientists, students, professionals, and industrialists to be exposed on the current innovations on the different fields of nanotechnology., exchange ideas and discover opportunities. Especially, on 29 May in PLENARY LECTURES V: Nanotechnology Commercialization Workshop, Nano Malaysia, INIC and the Philippines’ startups introduced their activities.

On May 27, ANF organized ANF SUMMIT 2019 at Taal Vista Lodge in Tagaytay City, PHILIPPINES. At first, Dr. Annabelle V.Briones had Welcome Remarks. Then, we took Annual General Meeting(AGM), and each country introduced their science and technologies’ policies and activities as is customary with ANF SUMMIT. This time we could have a fruitful discussion aggressively.

In the afternoon, we had working group presentations. 3 working groups(Standardization, Nanosafety and Risk Management, Commercialization) explained their activities. Moreover, we decided Host of ANF Summit 2020/2021 and elected Next ANF office bearers.
